The Continuing Saga of Heart Man
Powered by an electrical charge
Heart Man floated out to space
Intent on finding EGO
To touch the master’s face
Heart Man was a prototype
A man who really cared
Who had no bias or malice
Was kind, patient and fair
He’d trained himself to be
The man he ought to be
And studied the things of righteousness
So diligently
“EGO,” the final message,
Was garbled on his screen
With trained efficiency
He loaded the AO machine
It whirred with a gentle hiss
Heart Man was strapped inside
Just as rehearsed a hundred times
Ceiling panels opened wide
In no time he was in a place
Whole dimensions away
En route to merge with the master
On this concluding day
Suddenly, a dazzling light
Set colored planes aglow
Heart Man moved far past time
Enchanted by the show
Shapes were constant, fleeting
As if pages were turning
Pulsing, twirling, rotating
Small beads of colored fire burning
Heart Man fell into a deep sleep
His craft drawn by a beam
And Heart Man entered the Indescribable Realm
Enjoying multiple dreams
And then all things grew dark
And silence dominated …
A strange voice spoke to Heart Man …
In a language syncopated
